[Verse 1]
 
C#                  C#m7    C#6
Pull the plug in September
C#                      C#m7  C#6
I don't want to die in June
    C#                        C#m7     C#6
I’d like to start planning my funeral
         A        D#m7#5  C#   C#m7  C#6  C#   C#m7  C#6
I've got work to do

Pull the plug make it painless
C#                      C#m7  C#6
I don't want a violent end
C#                           C#m7     C#6
Don’t say that you'll always love me
                    A            D#m7#5                     C#   C#m7  C#6  C#   C#m7  C#6

[Chorus]
 
B6/9
Doomsday is close at hand
C#6                        C#
I'll book the marching band to play as you speak
B6/9
I'll feel like throwing up
C#6                         C#
You'll sit and stare like a goddamn machine
            B6/9
I'd like to plan out my part in this
    C#6
But you're such a narcissist
       D#11
You’ll probably do it next week
              C#6
I don’t get a choice in the matter
    A
Why would I?
     D#m7#5   C#          C#m7  C#6
It's only the death of me
         C#          C#m7  C#6
Only the death of me
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
C#                   C#m7     C#6
Pull the plug but be carеful

I don’t want to die too soon
C#                          C#m7       C#6
I think there's good in you somеwhere
N.C                            C#
I'll hang on ‘til the chaos is through
 
 
[Chorus]
 
B6/9
Doomsday is close at hand

You'll sit and stare like a goddamn machine
            B6/9
I'd like to plan out my part in this
    C#6
But you're such a narcissist
       D#11
You'll probably do it next week
              C#6
I don't get a choice in the matter
    A
Why would I?
     D#m7#5
It's only the death of me
 
 
[Bridge]
 
G#add4
It was so quiet
               C#6
No friends and family allowed
        G#add4
Only my murderer, you, and the priest
                C#6
Who told you to go to Hell
                       G#add4
And the funny thing is I would've married you
              C#6
If you'd have stuck around
            C#                  C#m7   C#6
I feel more free than I have in years
                    C#   C#m7  C#6  C#   C#m7  C#6
Six feet in the ground
 
 
[Chorus]
 
B6/9
Doomsday is close at hand
C#6                        C#
I'll book the marching band to play as you speak
B6/9
I feel like throwing up
C#6                   C#
You sit and stare like a goddamn machine
                  B6/9
I'd have liked to plan out my part in this
    C#6
But you're such a narcissist
D#11
That you did it on Halloween
         C#6
I had no choice in the matter
    A
Why would I?
     D#m7#5
It's only the death of me
